Hugh Jackman ponders if we’ll see him wearing Wolverine’s claws again after Bryan Singer’s upcoming X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST epic, while speaking with MTV News during promotions for his latest film “Prisoners”.
“Maybe there’s no more Wolverine. Maybe this is it.”
“It may be the last. By the way, it didn’t hit me until three weeks before the end [of shooting ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past], because we promoted ‘The Wolverine’ and I came back on set with three weeks to go, and that’s when I went, ‘Well, who knows? Maybe there’s no more Wolverine. Maybe this is it. Who knows? Maybe.’ So I really made the most of those last few weeks. I enjoyed every time I put the claws on.”
“Now he’s owning that Wolverine nature and everything.”
“Definitely. Even more, I think, than in ‘X-Men 3,’ where he was reluctantly becoming a member of the team, now he’s owning the warrior in him. Now he’s owning that Wolverine nature and everything, again, is so cataclysmic in the beginning of that movie that it’s all hands on deck. He’s certainly right in the middle of it.”
“If I tell you it is giving away literally the key scene.”
As honest as Jackman was about hanging up the claws and shaving his muttonchops, there was one thing he had to remain mum about: the final scene he shot for “Days of Future Past.” “If I tell you it is giving away literally the key scene,” Jackman said. “Literally, I would be killed. I cannot say one part of that scene.”
Again Please. Can you honestly see them doing more X-Men Movies without Hugh putting the claws on? Did he even give this interview to MTV (which has been so unreliable in film news in the past). And why bother posting it just to make us feel bad?! We have not even seen DOFP yet?!.. It is way too early to talk about this. Besides, other reports say that he already signed on for three more X-Men movies five months ago.
X-men can be still X-men without Wolverine. Let say he just took off. Something like that.. then he can return as cameo in X-Force.
Just reduce the screen time for WOLVERINE.. that’s all..
ı agree. reduce but wolverine should remain in x-movies.
you bet..
i honestly think hugh does need to take a break from playing wolverine as much as he has, i mean yea he did great in the 1st 3 films and x-men origins: wolverine, ive not seen the wolverine yet but judging by the footage which i have seen, the timeline which they did and stil tryed to go with doin the japan saga, seriously if your gonna make a film based out of a comic book, do it right which is the way it was done , all that does is just create confusision and screw tehe whole up, the japan story was before he even joined the x-men team, not after and the scene of him at a bar in japan, that was suppose to give away how he traveled to japan to become a samerui or whatever, again which was before he even joined the x-men, if you r not gonna make a movie right, dont bother making it at all, honestly
